Pregnancy - 33 weeks

I am due for another appointment with Doc Wong next Tuesday..By then, I should finalised on the date of my c-section. The frequency of my monthly check ups is on a bi-monthly basis now. Ethan is approximately 1.8kg, average size baby I must say.

I am feeling more lethargic especially after work. At times, I feel breathless possibly to the lack of space in my ballooning bulge. The numerous sleepless nights, frequent visits to the toilet somehow made me want Ethan to be born soon yet part of me still wants to spend more time with Chloe before she officially sleeps with aunty wati (my newly engaged housemaid) at night while I take care of little one.

What will happen next in another few months time is still a big question mark in my head. Will I survive the dreaded breastfeeding stage? Will I have painful engorgement like my first pregnancy? Will Chloe be well behaved without my constant supervision or will she get jealous of her newly arrived sibling?

I guess I will only know when the time comes!

Conversation With Chloe

I was patting Chloe during her afternoon nap just now..

Me: Chloe, didi Ethan is coming out soon from mummy's tummy you know?
Chloe: (drinking her milk & nodding her head in agreement)
Me: Do u want to visit mummy & ethan in hospital?
Chloe: Yes & get my sunglasses?
Me: (pretty surprised she still remembers that didi might have a surprise for her) Yes maybe u will really get your surprise
Chloe: Ok i go hospital visit mama, dun scratch your tummy k? doctor will give you injection.

The Search Has Ended...

Finally, after months of debating on which name we like best, we have decided on a name for little brother.

We were torn between naming him Caleb or Ethan. Well, Pete has a preference on Caleb while I prefer Ethan.

Caleb - Of Hebrew origin meaning faith, devotion & Whole hearted.
Ethan - also of Hebrew origin meaning firm & strong.

We have come to a compromise, with me getting the name I like & Pete choosing his Chinese name. Jia Le 家乐 meaning Happy Family.
